Self Deconstruction (Japan) - S/T (2011)

Self Deconstruction was formed in February, 2010, after Kuzuha "left ... Sete Star Sept" because "many troubles happened in December, 2009." First, he recruited Hiroto for blastbeat duty, and after a while the two of them got Shimano + Kubine as male / female mic assault duo, making for today's line up.

"Our music style is FREE STYLE GRIND."

Well, it sounds cool - and it is! Where Sete Star Sept runs self-destructive Arsedestroying noise through their veins, Self Deconstruction is hyperactive with riffs, blasts & breaks, thrashing on a path more similar to Swarrrm (don't take me wrong! - the bands are very different [all three: 7s7, SxDx, Swarrrm]). It might be worth mentioning (in respect to poopy purists) that I've always found grind bands with clean, low volume interludes ("Superficial") damn SWEET. So when all is said and done, SxDx remains a very crusty thing with a hard-to-pinpoint core, which is by no means a negative notion. For those who are mad on identity, always clutching a shit idol or two - let the rest of us breathe!

Sure. I mean, Grindcore Karaoke is cool, but I wonder how many people will care enough to go through all those bands / projects in the first place? Especially if we consider all the sorts of stuff Randall has gathered.

So I like the whole deal, but I wonder if I'd even notice, for example, Shaken Baby on there if Owen hadn't sent me their album. http://cephalochromoscope.blogspot.com/2012/01/shaken-baby-belgium-phantasmagoria-2011.html

Stuff like that, y'know. But in the end (or, "in reality"), I've nothing to bitch about.

Dude, this is pretty fantastic. And I very rarely look through Randall's releases, but I will say that he's snagged some great material for the label, even if he didn't discover most of it first: Robocop, TheDownGoing, Cloud Rat, Cogs and Sprockets...

A leaden stride to the blogosphere

Cephalochromoscope means grindcore and generally noisy, fast-as-fuck punk, or all that but at the speed of a tectonic plate. Also reviews, interviews, and all that jazz. And actual jazz. Hey, if you like the music and it's still in print thus making it possible for you to do some fine record shopping, feel free to do so. Let me know if you wish to contribute. Submissions are not really welcome or unwelcome, but I can't really promise when / if a post will be made anymore; in any case, use the e-mail address below, be as fast (/as slow) as possible with your music, don't be damn generic, don't expect a "hey this is x from x and they're fucking awesome" post, and try to provide relevant info with cover art instead of continuing the undying, ever-uninspiring contest in global half-assedness. [I do hate to be professional.] For any bands and/or labels with objections, please send your complaints to my e-mail address (otherwise, we might simply reupload!):zmajeee (at) yahoo.com

It is nice if people leave a comment or two every once in a while. Also, by downloading from this blog you automatically acknowledge Discordance Axis as the best band ever. This being the most important rule of attaining blastbeatitude. Just sayin'.
